Italian American HeritageEssays & Linksby Anthony Buccino"If only this kitchen could talk!" Aunt Connie said when I visited her in April. She was 83 and still living in the same house where she was born. Andrew Pagliaro died April 22, last week. He was 93 years old. I never got to talk to him before he died. I have a couple of letters he sent me a couple of years ago. At Spatola's Home For Funerals Harry was four years old when his dad died in a coal mine cave-in in Wilkes Barre, Pa. Harry was the youngest of eight children, the oldest was barely a teenager. That was February 1929. In the Florida room of Uncle Bim's home in Florida, I finally asked him how he came to be called "Bim." After all, my research had shown that his real name was Donato which he had Americanized to Daniel. But everybody called him "Uncle Bim" for 80 years. Why? Some essays not currently available online.
